Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wing angle monitoring, in particular to a wing angle monitoring device. Background Art

[0002] Smart skin technology plays an important role in the research of aircraft skin. The skin is the outer covering layer of the aircraft surface, which is used to provide structural support, aerodynamic shape and protect the internal system. The development of smart skin technology aims to improve the performance, safety and maintenance efficiency of the aircraft, and realize real-time monitoring, adjustment and optimization of the skin structure, thereby improving the performance and safety of the aircraft. Therefore, angle measurement has become an indispensable research topic for smart skin.

[0003] By installing a flexible angle sensor on the smart skin, the working principle of the sensor is based on the piezoresistive effect. The reduction of the gap between the conductive part inside the sensor will cause the contact resistance between the sensing layer and the electrode to change. In addition, the distribution and contact state of the conductive material inside the sensing layer will also change, further affecting the resistance of the sensor. Therefore, by monitoring the change in resistance, the physical relationship between the resistance value and the angle can be converted into angle data, thereby realizing the detection of the wing bending angle. Therefore, a wing angle monitoring device is proposed here. Utility Model Content
